bishop’s weed

Ground elder (Aegopodium podagraria). A lot of gardeners hate it, but ground elder, herb gerard, bishop’s weed, goutweed, gout wort, English masterwort, wild masterwort is another wild vegetable you can use to support your health. Ground elder (Aegopodium podagraria) was introduced by the Romans, to supply their soldiers with fresh vegetables along the roadside. Of course they used a plant that knows how to survive in all circumstances, one that cannot be conquered. Ground elder is used to treat gout, rheumatism and arthritis and as a spring detox & blood-purifier. The nutrient content of Goutweed is much higher than that of kale. I’m juicing it with my regular vegetable juices.
